Bill Summary
AN ACT relating to the designation of a portion of State Highway 48 in Cameron County as the Deputy Constable Ruben Garcia Memorial Highway.
AI Summary
This bill designates a specific portion of State Highway 48 in Cameron County, Texas, between its intersections with State Highway 550 and Fishermans Place Road, as the "Deputy Constable Ruben Garcia Memorial Highway" to honor a local law enforcement officer. The Texas Department of Transportation is required to design, construct, and erect markers indicating this memorial highway designation, with signs to be placed at each end of the designated highway segment and at appropriate intermediate sites. The bill specifies that this new designation is in addition to any existing highway designations and is set to take effect on September 1, 2025. The legislation appears to be a commemorative act intended to recognize and remember Deputy Constable Ruben Garcia, likely in recognition of his service or a specific act of heroism, though the specific details of his contribution are not provided in the bill text.
